I've got one of thse with 4 prongs.
The same Spange as in Detlev's update was for sale on a german forum, and accepted as original.

No info on the possible maker though....

great pics thanks
I know nothing of this style, never seen it before and I can't say either way, strange.
I'll just have to keep looking and listening...

anyone else out there have one?

I knew I'd seen it before(!)
I just found a few identical examples in my 'fakes folder'
I can't actually remember how or why they're in there, but multiple examples from different people, at different times, all pronounced repro. Very rare that new styles appear and are actually authentic
sorry Ben and Detlev (and the buyer), too good to be true

Hi Jon,

at what for details do you fasten the copy?

IMO there's a finite amount of known pre-'45 designs, this isn't one of them
